December 25 -- Christmas. My family doesn't celebrate Christmas. It was calm, hot afternoon and I had a job. Cool. I was busy submitting data for Meitha and her boyfriend's scholarship. Then Dad urged me to shower :D because my soldier uncle will come with his family. Mom and Dad busy cooking and after shower I was wondering whether to wear bra now or later. Because I'm home. Home is BRA-FREE ZONE. They came, my lovely cousins with their Mom and Dad. Surprisingly ther came with a lot of foods! It's supposed to be us who serve foods as the host, but they came with Pisang Goreng, Pisang Goreng Crispy, and Nasi Goreng. I made them Iced Syrup. My cousins are younger than me and they were the ones who played with me when we were kids. Older cousins were "too mature" for me so they didn't take me in when they played. Ooh! So these young faces are Toto and Tassja. Tassja just had her first semester in Unibraw University in Malang, so there was stories to share, and Toto wanted me to read his film script and make a comment about it. He loves filmmaking, recently... I hope it lasts (Because I might quit and settle as novel writer :D). His basic idea was great, but the script lacked of dramaturgy, so I shared about it. I also told him the last script I wrote, I wrote it differently with the synopsis handed to me, with the same basic idea. And the director rejected it, he wanted his original synopsis, so, I got it done...with heavy, guilty feeling to myself...that I wrote a crap. But I saved my draft and I thought that one was real script, the one I sent to him was crap. Toto was bewildered and told me the draft I wrote out of my fucked up head was pure symbolic and surrealist! Not everyone can accept that shit! I smiled and laughed in my heart. I was so glad that my cousin finally understands me. I told him well it's film...what is film? moving images, you gotta work with images, not verbal blatant dialogues or blatant scenes. And that's how I'm such a pain in the ass for directors. And they are also pain in my ass! Please, at least, try, explore this media.
Finally I suggested scenes to his script and he realy liked it. He said he got goosebumps. :) You write horror story, come if you want to spice it up :D Well, that visit was just lovely. I love meetings where you can take or give something to it. Family meetings used to be just full of bullshit, no? I love being around people I can be real with.
Two Introverts Make A Bash -- It was a rainy day. Miss Shinta asked if I would like to hang out. No doubt I would. I just would not ask anyone first because I'm afraid they would pretend like it's cool but actually they prefer staying home or spending times with anyone else. She asked so I was like, yaaayy!! We met at Gandaria City and after short trip around Metro where the cool shoes were on discount, we settled at Roppan. I had bento lunch ~ I was hungry because I worked out :D. It was Chicken Terriyaki Bento and oishiikatta desu! ^_^ and Miss Shinta ordered Fruity Angel Honey Toast which we ate together (oh my, it was like the burned calories in workout greeting me "Hi" again.)
When she asked about what was going on in my life recently, I told her there were happy and horrible moments. The happy moment was when I got A in comprehensive test and the horrible moment was the event thing. I told her all, and this time there was a feeling of true relief... She understood all my actions-reactions and this conversation brought us further into one kind of personality traits...which she was surprised that I could almost "read" her like an open book. Actually I didn't read her, I just described my own traits and I know that I'm not alone in this world. We're those people, generally, called the introverts.
There are too many similar things between us and it scared both of us until the last random thing is we both like one piece dress, and we both think that a little black dress solves everything. We have extreme feelings. Ecstatic, depressed; deep inside there is no moderation.
I don't feel like writing everything we talked about, here; of course there is no secret but it will be very long. But the feeling is always the same, anytime spent with her is times when I feel together, when I feel celebrated, as if life is a party. While we sat in the outdoor area, a group of Korean guys and a girl came and sat behind us. Then, what they had to do with us? Nothing, I just remember each details.. :D Another thing I remember, her sister called asking her to buy a present for a toddler who was going to have birthday party the next day, so from Roppan we searched for toys shop. I wanted to take the escalators, I want to avoid using the elevator at all costs, and surprisingly, it was the right decision. There was fire damage in the mall. The smoke was profound and the mall staffs handled it poorly. Too slow for such a.. maybe just small damage. Then the next day I went out with Toto, Tassja, and my aunt Titan. It was Tassja's idea. Yay I'm invited!
Tassja wanted to try Shisha so we were heading to Little Baghdad. I laughed when they mentioned Little Baghdad because that place has my memories. That was my hang out destination with few friends back in 2007-2008. I never like shisha, but my friends like it so we went there. I even still remember our favorite seat on second floor, at the balcony where we could see the cars passing by. Since we were poor undergraduate students, we never ordered any food there, so I don't know how the foods taste. I usually ordered coffee.
